SG Interactive, a developer and publisher of
popular free-to-play games, today announced that
Crossfire Europe, a free online First Person Shooter
(FPS), will be coming to European gamers very soon, with a Closed
Beta Test (CBT) scheduled to begin on Aug. 31, 2011. Developed by
SG Interactive’s parent company
SmileGate,
Crossfire is one of the most popular online games in the
world, setting an impressive record of 2.8 million concurrent users
across the world. Gamers can catch a teaser of the game’s
fast-paced, competitive gameplay at:

In
Crossfire Europe, gamers join mercenary teams fighting for
dominance in a world overrun by terrorists and dominated by massive
corporations. With deeply competitive gameplay fueled by rankings,
leaderboards and clans, as well as plenty of diverse maps and
modes,
Crossfire Europe takes death match action to the next
level.
Crossfire Europe stands out from the competition with its
varied, unique game modes, such as “Ghost Mode,” where
one team must silently take down the other armed only with knives
and stealth cloaking.

“
Crossfire’s success in international markets is
unprecedented,” said Chris Lee, CEO of SG Interactive.
“We’re looking forward to seeing the bullets fly as we
bring the game to European players.”

Already popular in the international gaming community,
Crossfire’s reputation speaks for itself. SmileGate
has brought the game’s highly competitive gameplay to markets
across the world, achieving immense popularity since
Crossfire’s launch in 2007.

“
Crossfire continues its relentless march worldwide,”
said Herald Kwon, CEO of SmileGate. “If European gamers have
any doubt at all about whether or not they should try
Crossfire Europe, they should just look to the millions of
players worldwide who are already enthusiastic about the
game!”
